Have you ever heard of Pattaya? Pattaya is a small city located on the east coast of the Gulf of Thailand.  We can say that every tourist that visits Thailand should go to Pattaya for once as you can explore so much more to this place and it also has many attractions that are suitable for a family trip. It is an excellent chance to visit Pattaya in Thailand if you not only want to enjoy swimming, water activities, lying on a white sandy beach. On the other side, one of the best attractions to visit Pattaya is to enjoy its nightlife!

Most tourists visit Pattaya for the lively nightlife entertainment. You could take a good rest after the nightlife if you are staying in the 5-star hotel in Pattaya. Pattaya is splitting into three main areas – Naklua, Pattaya Beach and Jomtien. If you have a short holiday and want to enjoy the summer weather, please include this coastal city on your travel itinerary!

Day 1

You Can Take A Bus From Bangkok!

Taking a bus from Bangkok is the most cost-effective way to get to Pattaya. The commute time from Bangkok to Pattaya city takes around 2 hours. Bus tickets are available at the ticket counter, but if you can get the bus ticket earlier as you book online, it will be better as the buses fill up fast! You can also ride a private minibus, taxi, or Grabcar as your other choice. Your luggage weight is better to not more than 20 kg because the bus drivers will charge an excess fee. 

Check-In At Hotel

We stayed at the best family hotel for the first night. After checking in and dropping off our luggage, we had a BBQ seafood buffet Pattaya that just beside the hotel with 10 minutes of walking distance.

Pattaya Beach, Taking In The Ocean View Till Night!

Pattaya is the central place to take a boat to other islands. The beach stretches from the north to the south, with tree-lined seafront promenades and beach roads on the sides, and beach resorts and restaurants in the north and central areas are serving specialities. We walked along the soft white sand as the warm sea lapped at our toes.

The beaches in the north are the most peaceful, while the middle is mainly a shopping area and the south is primarily a nightlife place, so it is very lively. If we stay at the best family hotel nearby this place, we can easily find shops, department stores, fashion stores, beauty shops, supermarkets, bars, restaurants, discos and night clubs, everything.

Day 2

Relax By The Seaside After Breakfast That Provided By The Best Family Hotel

After the buffet breakfast at the hotel, we went to the beach and headed down to seawater for swimming.

Water Activities At The Jomtien Beach

We departed to another beach called Jomtien beach and stayed here for one night at this premium stay in Pattaya. This beach is one of the most famous beaches in southern Pattaya. The geographical environment here is unique, with the breeze blowing from Siam Gulf, and the sea traffic is smoother than Pattaya Beach, making Jomtien Beach a holy place for people who love windsurfing and water sports. 

Besides, Jomtien Beach also has a residential area with beachfront hotels, cabins, beach resorts, bungalows and restaurants.

The Ultimate Food Trip At The Four Regions Floating Market 

We hired a longboat to float along with the network of waterways in this floating market. This market is a huge floating market, about 14 football fields in size! FourRegions Floating Market has a composite floating market that provides shopping, shopping, snacks, food, clothing, accessories and souvenirs. And Running Man has been here for shooting their variety show! And we can’t believe that we found another bbq seafood buffet Pattaya as well!

Day 3

Catch A Taxi Back To Bangkok 

After checking out from the best resort in Pattaya, we went back by taxi. If you bought a lot of food and souvenirs, then you will have to take a taxi like us. We ended up negotiating a reasonable price to take a taxi back to Bangkok.

Well, please plan accordingly and bring enough stuff, and here are the small tips for you: 

Remember to prepare a checklist of your belongings.  You should bring extra clothes, mosquito repellent, sunscreen with high SPF level, swimming attire, beach bag, flip flops and a first-aid kit. Your first-aid kit inside should have some essential medicines, especially medicine for seasickness.

Drink plenty of water and get a good sleep before departure. vAs we know, the seawater contains a high volume of salt, and the water of your body will be lost. Besides that, please don’t drink the seawater, or else it will make you more thirsty!

Be alert about what is the best time to visit Pattaya. The best time to visit Pattaya is from November to January, and it is the peak season with cold and dry weather with is the winter season. And you can and do some research on the best resort in Pattaya.

See you on your next trip!
